“We learned from the last attempt that Times Square is under constant surveillance and police are always on scene. NYPD is much bigger and is on a different level when it comes to counter-terror.”

That's really funny there

The last Times Square attempt was a guy parking a FRICKIN SUV in the square and running off. Even though you aren't even allowed to stop in the square, the SUV packed with explosives wasn't noticed by police. A street vendor (a Nam Vet) called the cops over when they saw smoke and heard firecrackers. Many minutes later. The only reason it didn't blow is because it was a dud.

A bomber leaving a pipe bomb or 5 all over the square would never be caught in time. They'd just drop it disguised as trash, push a button and BOOM.

Yea, right. After the Boston bombing, NYPD sees two guys with backpacks who happen to look like the photos spread all over the country and they’re just gonna let ‘em waltz into Times Square and drop bombs.
